So, 252 is 1/5 of the total workforce then, the total or whole will then be 5/5 or 1 whole... well, if 252 is 1/5, what's 5/5?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
amount&fraction\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
252&\frac{1}{5}\\\\
x&\frac{5}{5}
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{252}{x}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{5}}{\frac{5}{5}}\implies \cfrac{252}{x}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{5}}{1}\implies \cfrac{252}{x}=\cfrac{1}{5}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{252\cdot 5}{1}=x

The perimeter of the kite is 134 cm. Find the value of x.
frez [133]

Answer:

x = 10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

(3x + 2) + (3x + 2) + (4x - 5) + (4x - 5) = 134 cm

combine like terms:

14x - 6 = 134

add 6 to each side of the equation:

14x = 140

divide both sides by 14:

x = 10

Which equation represents an exponential function that passes through the point (2, 80)?
Lena [83]

The function f(x) = 5(x)⁴, and f(x) = 5(4)ˣ represents the function that passes through the point (2, 80) option second and fourth are correct.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

It is defined as the function that rapidly increases and the value of the exponential function is always a positive. It denotes with exponent \rm y = a^x

where a is a constant and a>1

We have; an exponential function that passes through the point (2, 80).

f(x) = 4(x)⁵

Plug (2, 80) in the abovew function:

f(2) = 4(2)⁵ = 128 (false)

f(x) = 5(x)⁴

Plug (2, 80) in the abovew function:

f(2) = 5(2)⁴ = 80 (true)

f(x) = 4(5)ˣ

f(2) = 4(5)² = 100 (false)

f(x) = 5(4)ˣ

f(2) = 5(4)² = 80 (true)

Thus, the function f(x) = 5(x)⁴, and f(x) = 5(4)ˣ represents the function that passes through the point (2, 80) option second and fourth are correct.
